Review of the Coventry Building Society, Savings:

Regular Saver

We opened our joint account online in April. The whole process took one week, and we were set up with easy to view and manage internet banking. I transfer money regularly to this account from another bank, via internet banking. Coventry BS takes account security seriously, though it is straightforward to access your account. So far I have only needed to contact the Cov by telephone, and that was a query while the account was initially being set up; the lady I spoke with was professional, friendly and helpful. Since opening our account Cov BS have honoured the inflation rises by raising the interest rate some 3 times now (not all banks/building societies do this, and they're not obliged to). I also joined their separate site which sends out invites now and again (via email) to answer the odd survey or question. For one short survey I won £200 in M&S vouchers! I get the impression the Cov genuinely listens to feedback. Cov BS moderators regularly converse with customers on the blog section, and anyone can start a thread - most of the stuff on there is interesting with very few gripes! Sure, it's not the best rate out there, yet I like their set up and their features. They have a lot of accounts on offer - something for everyone, no matter what age. Wish we'd got involved with them sooner. Reviewed on: 5th August 2022

Great rates and options

Great rates and options of savings. Easy to set up online and staff also very friendly and helpful. Reviewed on: 28th February 2023

Simple products with good interest rates

For both the isa and saving accounts, CBS have promptly raised interest rates to reflect changes to base rate. Some of the best rates out there, especially on the limited access accounts that still allow for 6 withdrawals a year within penalty. Reviewed on: 28th February 2023

Excellent

Been with CBS for 40 years. As smart money goes, I have always felt safe and secure with them. Online or in ranch, helpful to a person. Reviewed on: 9th February 2023

Competitive savings rates and members not shareholders profit.

I've moved nearly all my savings to Coventry and they continue to offer competitive interest rates and I would prefer to bse a building society member than make money for a bank. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2023
